Some things in life make you wonder. Is bread already toasted because it was baked? Do fish see air like we see water? Is the other side of the moon dark because we refuse to look at it, or is it simply shy? And yet some things in life are certain. Flashlights should come with batteries. Spring's flowers will make you cry, either with emotions or allergies. Triangles have at least 3 sides.

But this was neither of those. A pair of glasses will make some see better, and some worse. Planes are used for shows, cargo, and war. From a tree some find a home, others gaze at beauty, many craft tables and benches, and yet some will fashion spears, arrows, and chariots. But there is always a sweet spot. And that is what I have found.

Natasha is the cake that is neither too sweet or too bland. The stick that is perfect for walking with. The porridge that's just right. The campfire that's warm enough for smores, but crackles enough for stories. And I will hold this stick with me the rest of my walk, as she leads me to new adventures.
